Progress not Perfection

Getting images of Mr SA peeping out from being buried under the trellis….how big were the panels🤪 I remember in lockdown we went to B&Mmmmmms and borrowed one of the supermarket trolleys to bring fence panels home….we had some fun 😳 NOT 🤪😳😂 it’s only around the corner but seemed like miles….they weren’t delivering at the time. We made several trips but it got the job done 😄

🤣🤣 Fortunately expanding trellis so they folded up quite small. I was actually surprised how long they were when I got them home.

Morning all, happy Friday.

Working in the office until 12.30 then finishing early as I have a hair appointment. I was going to WFH originally but changed my mind last night. 

Today's exercise is walking to/from work and the 7 day 5 minutes yoga challenge starts today so will do that before I jump in the bath later.

Tonight's dinner is smoked haddock with leek, cauliflower and lentil rice.

Happy Saturday 🥂

Not really achieved a lot today as we went to the big Mr T this morning then DS and the GKs arrived just after lunchtime. I had grand plans to give the kitchen and bathroom a good clean after they left but ended up reading my book. 

I often find I’m quite tired on Saturdays after a full week at work. 

Tomorrow is another day so will hopefully catch up on cleaning and gardening bits then. 

Just doing my nails then it’s pizza and rose cava later.

Hope you've enjoyed a nice evening with cava and pizza

Good idea to relax with a book. The dust will still be there another day, but you should always invest time in your well being.

That's Monday done. 

Worked in the office until just after lunchtime then finished up at home.

Lovely sunny day after a dull weekend. I don't know if it was the lack of sunshine but I felt really down this weekend, I feel so much better today despite it being Monday and back to work.

Finally got Mr SA to do a simple job in the garden that I've been asking him to do for ages which is remove some bamboo screening that's seen better days from a fence. The amounts of arguments I've had with him over this blooming screening, him wanting to keep it and me trying to make him see it would look better without it. Anyway it's gone. 

Today's exercise has been walking to/from work and I'm going to do a Sarah Beth Yogalates session shortly to stretch off.

Tonight's dinner is leftover lentil stew that I made for last night's dinner. Two portions went in the freezer.

Stopped off at Lid! on the way home and picked up the free protein item as they had the Skyr plain yoghurt back in stock. DS wanted me to pick him up one of those mini tool kits but they had all gone. 

Monday finance check done, cc balance paid off and an oddment of £9.09 has been sent to the Christmas pot. It's the final week of the 4 week budget period and there should be an underspend, not loads but any underspend is a bonus. I've stocked up a fair bit this month groceries wise. Also waiting for payday this time next week. 

Realised I've only got one more full working week to do after this week then it's a combination of short weeks and being on holiday until the third week in May 😁

5 weeks today we'll be in Lanzarote 😎

Just wanted to stop by to say I was thinking of you yesterday. I was painting the rafters in my conservatory with some old paint.  I didn't do a very good job but told myself as long as it looked better not worse it was progress not perfection!
It is a very good mantra to keep you motivated.

It is indeed, any progress is good 😊
